Hi,

What conditions could exist for freshclam to consume 1.5GB of RAM on Linux?

USER       PID %CPU %MEM   VSZ  RSS TTY      STAT START   TIME COMMAND
vscan     1783  1.3 47.4 1912028 1592816 ?   S    May20 344:25 /usr/bin/freshcla

It appeared to be still updating the virus patterns, although it
stopped writing to the freshclam.log quite a while ago. I restarted it
this morning:

vscan    32067  4.3  0.1  3232 1488 ?        S    13:29   0:04
/usr/bin/freshclam -d --quiet

Thanks,
Alex
